The late London showing had no special projection for the penultimate track, unless I missed something. I was looking up for it after Mex mentioned it that afternoon. Too bad.

Yeah, that looping noise at the start reminded me of our time at Teamlabs Borderless in Tokyo a while ago.

No start. No end. Always changing.

We can't confirm as we don't know what the bonus track is,

All we heard at the sessions were:
- Quiet looping drone while the room was being populated.
- 2 x introduction speeches.
- The 18 tracks of Inferno.

...so, it's possible that the bonus vinyl track could be the looping drone?

as we have a track title but not the length

I doubt it, since the audio on the bonus flexidisc is supposed to be a recording from 1983 – it’s either the introduction speeches or something else entirely.

Just throwing an idea out there, the flexi disc could be by them, *pretending* to be someone else from 1983. Couldn't find any record of the artist on the flexi-disc in the usual places.

Which means, it could be the pre-show thing.

But, I don't personally think this is the case. Just saying, it *could* be.

They could be lying, but I think it’s more likely that they dug up an obscure recording from the MBI (referenced several times in the promo campaign) that they liked and obtained permission to release it alongside the album.

An artist isn’t credited, so it’s probably just a voice recording, but it would be nice if we locate find the original source. My bet is that it’s from one of the free flexidiscs included with old MBI magazines as hinted at on the VHS tapes.

I’m getting chills while looking at the inner-sleeve album art and thinking about the song with the lead melody that’s played on sitar.

It's really, really good. A grower. It's not actually dark, I'd call it tender. It's the least autistic BoC release

Tomorrow’s Harvest opens up continuously to the listener in its heightened use of restraint. After one listen it feels like Inferno is going to have this effect in a different way that I cannot yet articulate.

Someone on Reddit posted their Inferno CD. Must've been efficient postal workers. Pretty cool to have it early!

To those who are now off to Slsk to get an early peek... good luck with the search.... The many bootlegs I have stumbled across have been very, very entertaining :)

Funny, the looping drone was LOUD in Los Angeles

Legend! You should 100% print this out and put it up on the wall.

Is it too much to ask that people who have got their albums shipped already not comment on the art/hexi disc, etc? I went to NYC for the listening show but have avoided the leaked audio, the reviews, and other stuff just to let myself take it all in more slowly at home.

No, it is not too much to ask. I want to hear the flexi-disc before reading anything about it too.
